Q & A

  • What is the main reason why players are quitting Pet Simulator 99?

Many feel that the game has become less fulfilling and overly focused on monetization.

  • Why does the player believe that Pet Simulator 99's updates have become less exciting?

    -The player believes that Pet Simulator 99's updates have become less exciting due to the extreme similarity between them. Updates mostly add new worlds or events with the same premise, lacking innovative new features or mechanics. This repetitiveness has led to a decrease in excitement and player engagement.

  • How does the pay-to-win aspect affect the experience for free-to-play players?

    -The pay-to-win mechanics in Pet Simulator 99 create an imbalance, leaving free-to-play players behind. Many items, pets, and boosts require spending Robux or real money, making it difficult for non-paying players to progress at the same pace. This has led to frustration and alienation among the community.

  • What is the impact of the introduction of the 'Forever Pack' in the game?

    -The introduction of the 'Forever Pack' has worsened the pay-to-win dynamics in Pet Simulator 99. Players can purchase Huges through this pack, making it easier for paying players to get high-value pets, while free-to-play players struggle to acquire them through gameplay, further creating a divide.

  • How does the community feel about the interaction between players in Pet Simulator 99?

    -The community feels that Pet Simulator 99 has become less friendly compared to its predecessor, Pet Simulator X. Many players report that they find it difficult to engage with others in the game, and there is a noticeable lack of cooperative play or chat, which was a key aspect of earlier versions.

  • What is the player's opinion on the frequent updates in Pet Simulator 99?

    -The player acknowledges that frequent updates are a double-edged sword. While they help keep the player base engaged, they also lead to a quicker depletion of ideas. As a result, updates feel repetitive and lacking in meaningful innovation, making it harder to maintain excitement for the game.

  • Why is the index system in Pet Simulator 99 considered frustrating?

    -The index system in Pet Simulator 99 is frustrating because it is nearly impossible to complete.

Additionally, they propose introducing ads that allow free players to earn in-game currency by watching them, giving them a chance to compete without needing to spend real money.

  • What makes the new game, Pets Go, more appealing to the player?

    -Pets Go is more appealing because it offers a fresh experience compared to Pet Simulator 99. The player finds it more fun due to its strategic elements, such as fishing for items and upgrading potions, and the fact that the pets you collect feel special because they are not easily available in abundance like in Pet Simulator 99.

  • What does the player plan for the future of their YouTube channel?

    -The player plans to diversify their YouTube content, gradually phasing out Pet Simulator 99-related videos in favor of more family-oriented content.
